Title: 3D Imaging of Lithium-ion Batteries
Advances in 3D imaging with x-rays and electron microscopes are enabling scientists and engineers to improve failure analysis and better understand the relationship between performance and structure. A detailed understanding how the 3D structure impacts the performance and how this structure changes upon cycling, is needed to optimize current battery designs and to develop next-generation battery materials.
In this webinar, attendees will learn from case studies about:
- Nondestructive imaging of large battery cells
- Failures in battery cells such as voids in electrodes, foreign material, electrode overhang, and housing/connector welding issues
- Structure-performance relationship in a thick cathode battery
- Porosity in the battery polymer separator
- Dendrite formation in a solid-state battery
Speakers:
Udo de Vries
